About Victoria
Victoria Dann is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with nine years of professional experience. She combines practical listening with a calm, compassionate presence to help people talk through worry, loss, low self-esteem and life changes. Victoria approaches sessions as a collaborative space where the person sets the pace and the focus.
She holds a BACP registration and brings that framework into how she works. Victoria uses a mix of talking therapies to match each person’s needs.
Background and approach
She draws on acceptance and commitment ideas to help people notice difficult thoughts without being led by them. Cognitive behavioural techniques are used to spot patterns that keep problems going and to try small experiments that change day-to-day life. Attachment-based and client-centred ways of working shape how she builds trust and explores relationship themes.
She has supported people with stress, anxiety, grief, parenting worries, relationship and intimacy-related concerns, and issues around identity and addiction. Victoria also works with concerns such as ADHD, body image, codependency, and communication problems. Her experience includes a broad range of family and fertility-related difficulties.
Sessions are practical and down to earth. Conversations focus on what matters most to the person and on simple steps that can be tried between meetings. Victoria aims to make sessions feel like useful time rather than a series of abstract exercises.
People can expect respect, warmth and straightforward feedback. The work is paced to fit individual circumstances and goals, and she adapts methods as needs change.

Therapeutic approaches suited to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without being led by them and then taking actions that reflect personal values; this can help with anxiety, stress and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and uses simple practical exercises to change patterns that keep difficulties going, which often helps with mood, worry and confidence. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how early and current relationships shape expectations and patterns, and it can be useful when relationship issues, intimacy or communication are a central concern.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences, and together they will decide which approaches to try. That collaborative process means methods can be adjusted as progress is made or priorities shift.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging. Video calls are close to a face-to-face conversation and suit longer sessions and expressive work. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit easily into a lunch break or a short window between commitments. Live chat and text messaging offer brief check-ins, ongoing support between sessions and a way to work without being on camera. These options give flexibility to fit therapy around work, family life and changing routines while keeping the focus on practical steps and steady progress.
